Kern River Brewing Company

Reviewed By nannyambt

It’s been several years since we have been here at Kern River Brewing Co. and I really don’t know why because it’s a great place. I had a side salad and chili and my husband had fish and chips. Pros: My chili was thick and excellent. My husbands fish had a great taste. The decor is fitting for a brewery Cons: My husbands fish wasn’t crispy it was a little on the soggy side and the breading fell off the fish. My salad was good but too many bell peppers for my taste. ( each to their own )Would I recommend it - you betcha. Will I come back- you betcha.

Cheryl's Diner

Reviewed By Coastfans

Breakfast at Cheryl's was a much needed pleasant surprise after our night at the Kernville Inn. Welcoming, friendly, spotlessly clean and obviously a local favourite. Servings were very generous; coffee was great and kept topped up, and we both enjoyed our meals very much. Pretty much the highlight of our visit to Kernville, which is a small and neatly kept village.

Had a burger here 2 years ago wile traveling, it was great. This time around we had breakfast. It was fine, we had french toast, nothing fancy, not the best I ever had, but still enjoyable. Add the view sitting at a window booth... can't beat it.

Dam Korner

Reviewed By MrRichardHannay

Arrived to see a recently decorated venue, which I must say was nicely decorated.However, that's where the niceness ended.The staff were not very welcoming or smiley throughout the entire stay.I ordered a stack of pancakes, and the Eggs Benedict.To my disappointment, the hollandaise sauce was runny, a lot browner than I've ever seen one, and tasted like nothing I've ever tasted before. It was disgusting.The pancakes were also a big disappointment; they were so dry that when I lifted my fork to my mouth they would just crumble/disintegrate mid air! Having mentioned this to my (local) friend, they said that they would have recommended I eat elswhere, had I asked him.Anyways, long story short, if you have low standards as far as food taste goes, then by all means check this place out. If on the other hand, you like good tasting food with comparable standards of service, then seek out somewhere else!

During a beautifully scenic drive we lucked upon this diner near Lake Isabella. Great service from very friendly locals and good wholesome food to accompany it. Highly recommended if you’re on the road. If you’re a local you will already know how good this place is!!

Paradise Cove

Reviewed By Gary I

Paradise Cove has been one of the best dining experiences in the Lake Isabella/Kern Valley area for years. In an era of fast food, this dining experience offers good food, at a reasonable price, in an upscale atmosphere. The service is prompt and friendly also. The prime rib special is the highlight of their menu.
